As an inside joke I share with a buddy goes, everybody likes pancakes, so happy National Pancake day to all of you here in the U.S. (as well as flapjack-crazed folks from around the world planning to move here just to be able to celebrate the occasion). The IHOP National Pancake Day Page shows how to find your nearest location to get free short stack of buttermilk pancakes to benefit your belly, and the opportunity to offer a donation to the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Unfortunately for those overseas, though IHOP once stood for International House of Pancakes, this apparently refers to the cuisine, rather than their locations, as they only have restaurants in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Guatemala.
